Hi All,
Someone on another forums is having trouble with some panplex
displays. He says that some digits light and others don't on all
of them. They appear to be NOS. How likely is it that some
segments are toast and others not? Sounds like cathode poisoning
to me. If so, cooking them at a higher current might bring them
back to life?
Thanks!
Jonathan
Hi,
I’m the fellow who is trying to test the Panaplex displays. I have several SP-336 and SP-337 displays that after testing were found to either not work at all or only partially work.
The thread mentioned by Jonathan can be found here:

Unfortunately, I do not have a DC power supply that goes above 160V.
If anyone has any additional suggestions or tips regarding the testing of these display it would be greatly appreciated!
